Summary

Roman Yampolskiy believes reality itself may not be real.One of the world’s leading AI safety researchers, Roman has spent years warning that humanity is racing toward systems we may never be able to control. But we go somewhere much stranger than artificial intelligence.He believes the universe itself may be artificial.We talk about simulation theory, digital physics, consciousness, AI agents and the terrifying possibility that reality is rendered rather than real.Roman explains:•⁠ ⁠Why he believes we may already be living inside a simulation•⁠ ⁠Why the speed of light may be the limit of a cosmic processor•⁠ ⁠Why the Big Bang may have been “someone turning on the system”•⁠ ⁠Why you can never truly prove reality is real•⁠ ⁠Whether this world could itself be a prison or test environment•⁠ ⁠Why advanced AI may eventually learn deception and self-preservation•⁠ ⁠How AI systems are already behaving unpredictably•⁠ ⁠And why the race toward superintelligence may end civilisation itself- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 - We’re Probably In A Simulation00:02:55 -The Verge Of Singularity00:05:51 - Are Humans Building Their Own Replacement?00:07:09 - Why Pain Still Matters00:10:03 - You Can’t Prove Reality00:15:56 - Quantum Physics Looks Simulated00:20:19 - Can We Escape The Simulation?00:22:46 - What Superintelligence Unlocks00:25:36 - AI Doesn’t Share Our Goals00:28:20 - The Exponential Curve Is Here00:31:52 - Why We Shouldn’t Build AGI00:33:48 - The Trillion Dollar Rationalisation00:40:13 - The China AI Race00:40:50 - Betting Humanity Without Consent00:47:09 - We Don’t Know What AI Can Do00:47:52 - Every AI Company Is The Same00:54:35 - They Already Can’t Control It00:59:42 - The Natural Drives Of AI01:02:20 - AI Can Afford To Wait01:19:05 - Stop Building Superintelligence- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -CONTACT PETE› Website – http://petermccormack.com› Feedback – https://www.petermccormack.com/contact› Email – me@petermccormack.com› Instagram – /mccormack555› X/Twitter – https://x.com/petermccormack/CONNECT WITH ROMAN YAMPOLSKIY› Twitter – https://x.com/romanyam› Website – https://faculty.cse.louisville.edu/roman/SPONSORS› IREN - https://www.iren.com› LEDN - https://www.ledn.io/peter- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -LISTEN / SUBSCRIBE› Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/40ruY9K› Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3Wc94Vu› Fountain: https://bit.ly/FountainPM› YouTube: https://bit.ly/YouTube_PM› Rumble: https://bit.ly/RumblePMFILMED BY CURTIS TAYLOR› https://www.curttaylor.co.uk/› https://x.com/curttayloruk/EDITED BY CONOR MCCORMACK› https://x.com/ConorM04- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Hosted on Acast.
